Bulk importing LDAP users to numerous XI instances

[optionstechnology]

Hi,

We have a lot of Nagios XI instances (~40) and I need to import new users from AD on each of these.

Obviously I don’t want to manually use the front end on each XI instance to import these users.
I looked into the POST system/user API but it only seems to allow the creation of local users.

QUESTION: Is there a way I can import these new users on ALL of our Nagios XI instances without having to do it manually? If not this could get very frustrating in the future, having to manually import an AD user on each Nagios machine every time a user requires access.
This would take hours if there are multiple users, having to add each user on each Nagios instance.

If this isn't possible currently, can we get a feature request in? To be honest. I think its quite shocking that Nagios haven't implemented security groups or the likes.

To our firm, this is really essential as we have no employees joining all the time and every person requires access to the 40+ Nagios instances.

Thanks,
G

This will be added to the API in the 5.5 release expected this quarter:
